    PoP:WW is NOT optimized for retina display, unfortunately, but otherwise thanks for the list.

    Add Street Fighter 4, it's retina display optimized.

    It says it's optimised for retina display in the description, maybe there's a problem with it. I'll add SF4, thanks.

    SF4 has multi-tasking. Don't think it has retina display...

    Dominion is optimized for the Retina display for the in game map rendering. The icons will be updated in version 1.2 to a higher resolution as well.

    Dominion also supports iOS4 fast app switching.

    Sorry I take that back, the text is crisp but the characters are blurry.

    Only the icon is retina display resolution, not the actual game itself.

    I have the game and it does use retina display in the game itself.
    Read the full description:

    Pocket sized table football for your iPhone or iPod Touch!

    Pick up and play this easy-to-learn but hard-to-master iPhone game from Illusion Labs, the creators of smash-hits such as Labyrinth 2 and Touchgrind.

    Support for iPhone 4 Retina display, making the game look spectacular!

    Features
    - One player against the iPhone
    - Two players on the same device
    - Intuitive and responsive controls
    - True 3D physics
    - Astounding graphics that utilize OpenGL ES 2 shaders to the max (on capable devices)
    - Realistic sound effects
    - Difficulty levels (Easy, Medium and Pro)

    What's new In Version 1.1.1

    Hires icon for retina display

    I just got an iPhone 4 and it pisses me off (sort of) when the icons isn't updated for retina. It looks terrible. Also when i play games that are not retina display updated they usually looks worse than when played on an 3GS.

    I agree but don't worry once the new iPod comes out with retina display more devs will eventually start updating...hopefully.

    From what I understand it's not that hard to implement. So why there are still so many games that don't support it is beyond me. I personally think it would generate more sales.

    I feel the same... add games to the list thread I made and we can help show devs how much demand there is.
    Oh and get Depict.. its the bomb! Perfectly executed pickup multiplayer pictionary in Retina glory! The game needs more love.
